This healthy banana bread is heavenly! It is sweet, filling, and packed with fiber and protein! I brought a few squares to two neighbors and they absolutely loved them.Healthy Banana Bread
They couldn’t believe they were actually healthy! That is my favorite reaction to get when friends, neighbors, and family try out my recipes. If they are astonished by the fact that what I made them is actually GOOD for them, I consider my recipe a success! Hop over to my Cinnamon French Tofu Sticks for the chocolate sauce drizzled on top to add an extra delicious, chocolatey twist. I also added my favorite protein powder, Nature’s Food Organic Protein, to this recipe for the extra protein boost.
